Mount EXT3-TR

Install EXT3-TR using one of the following methods:

• Attach the rubber feet and place the unit on a flat surface.

• Fasten a bracket (included) on each side of the unit and attach it to a flat surface (see www.kramerav.com/downloads/EXT3-TR).

• Mount the unit in a rack using the recommended rack adapter (see www.kramerav.com/product/EXT3-TR).

• Ensure that the environment (e.g., maximum ambient temperature & air flow) is compatible for the device.

• Avoid uneven mechanical loading.

• Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used for avoiding overloading of the circuits.

• Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.

• Maximum mounting height for the device is 2 meters.

Connect inputs and outputs

Always switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your EXT3-TR extender.

Wiring the RJ-45 Connectors
This section defines the HDBT pinout, using a straight pin-to-pin cable with RJ-45 connectors.
For HDBT cables, it is recommended that the cable ground shielding be connected/soldered to the connector shield.
To achieve specified extension distances, use the recommended Kramer cables available at www.kramerav.com/product/EXT3-TR.
Using third-party cables may cause damage!

Setting the DIP Switches

• All DIP-switches are set to OFF (up) by default
• All changes in DIP-Switches apply immediately, on-the-fly (no need to power cycle the device), except for
  DIP-switches 1 and 2.

ON (down) – Transmitter mode is active.
2| Active USB Host port| OFF (up) – Host is active.
ON (down) – Host is inactive (active on remote paired device).
3| Define IR Pass-through| OFF (up) – Pass-through the IR signal to or from the IR cable.
ON (down) – Add IR modulation (38kHz) to the IR output signal (applies only when the IR port is connected to an IR emitter cable).
4| Programing RS-232| Off (up) – Normal operation mode is enabled (FW programming RS-232 is inactive).
On (down) – FW programming RS-232 is active.

Connect power

Connect the power cord to EXT3-TR and plug it into the mains electricity.
